FL Mayor Wants $250,000 Toilets to stop gay sex
Sometimes this state makes me want to leave Florida entirely and go to someplace sane in the Northeast.

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/broward/sfl-flbtoilets0704sbjul04,1,2478035.story?ctrack=1&cset=true

-snip-

Now the mayor has shifted his attention to a robotic toilet, saying the invention could have a special edge over a traditional restroom in preventing the "homosexual activity" that he said plagues other public restrooms.

The robo-john the city might buy for $250,000 or more allows occupants to stay inside for only a short time before the door opens. Probably not enough time for "illegal sex," Naugle figures.

Naugle, not a stranger to public controversy, particularly on the issue of gays, said public restrooms are pickup places for "homosexuals. ... They're engaging in sex, anonymous sex, illegal sex."

7. Wow, the Republicans sure have their priorities in line
No money for universal health care, but of course there is plenty of money for $250,000 toilets which prevent gay people from having sex on them. Right when you think the Republicans can't possibly get any stupider they find a new way to prove you wrong.

9. God help the old men who stumble into this public potty.
I can just see guys with prostate trouble standing there forever trying to get their bladders to empty and suddenly the door pops open.

Not to mention someone who happens to be a little stopped up if you know what I mean......

This is an incredibly stupid idea.


Not to mention how bizarre it is that this mayor is spending his free time thinking about gay men having sex in public toidies.

10. So you have to pass through a gaydar to use the toilet?
Only heterosexuals are allowed in?

How does an automated toilet know the sexual preference of its "users"?

11. There haven't actually been any complaints about gay sex there
there was another thread and that was something that came out in that thread. I can't read the article because I'm not registered, but it was at the end of the article in the other thread. I think the fact that they're spending that much money to stop something that hasn't happened is STUPID.

13. Half my family takes the crossword in with them....guess that's out!
Doesn't this guy have anything better to do with his time than think dirty thoughts about other people's sex and toilet habits?

Ew.

Are those the ones that pack the pink pistols, or it that DTO, I can't remember which one is which now.

:sarcasm:

Maybe Bill O'Really should do a report on this.
